Interesting comment. When AWS went down in the US, devops rightly said "we told you to run your apps on something you have control over."



What's that? A server I own on a rack I own in a datacenter I own on a power factory I own and a telco I own?

"Having control over" something is a scale, it's not binary.


Indeed, I was trying to say it is all relative.


Sure, but it's a tradeoff. No need for devops vs no control over outages.


More relevant would be "where's your DR site?"
